What is ITS?

There is no harmonized definition but generally Intelligent Transport Systems(ITS) are understood as systems in which information and communication technologies are applied in the field of road transport, including infrastructure, vehicles and users, and in traffic management and mobility management, as well as for interfaces with other modes of transport.

Additionally, predictive techniques are being developed to allow advanced modeling and comparison with historical baseline data.

UNECE and ITS

ITS play an important role in shaping the future ways of mobility and the transport sector. The huge potentials and benefits can only be reaped if ITS solutions are put in place and internationally harmonized, through the UNECE Conventions and Agreements
